She has also been involved with other government organisations in the area of law and justice, a notable one is her role as a member and Deputy Chairperson of the Constitutional and Law Reform Commission.

Deputy Director for Corporate Services, Dr. Esther Lavu hailed Dr. Hukula’s contribution to PNG in the fight against GBV and protection of vulnerable people in communities.

Dr. Lavu encouraged her to continue to drive the agenda right across the Pacific region as she moves on to her new job.

While thanking the Institute and everyone, Dr. Hukula extended her gratitude to those who she worked with and learnt from in her earlier years, especially Dr. Thomas Webster, Dr. Joe Ketan and Richard Sikani. Other senior researchers she had worked with are the late Dr. Ray Anere, Dr. Alphonse Gelu, Late Dr. Henry Okole and Colonel James Laki.
